West Ham moved into the top half of the Premier League table with a victory over Fulham on Saturday.

And two former West Ham players were in the stands watching the game.

Carlton Cole and Marlon Harewood even went to the pub before the clash with Fulham and mingled with West Ham fans.

West Ham’s official Twitter account posted a video of Cole and Harewood singing “I’m Forever Blowing Bubbles” with the fans in a pub.

And West Ham fan Brett O’Brien captured Harewood signing along to the same song inside Craven Cottage.

Both Cole and Harewood played up front for West Ham with reasonable success.

Harewood spent four years with the Hammers, scoring 56 goals in 170 games – most of which came in the Championship.

Cole was at West Ham for nine years between 2006 and 2015, scoring 68 times in just shy of 300 appearances for the Irons.

Both players were received well by West Ham supporters, who chanted alongside the players they once sang about.

Below are what West Ham fans were saying about Cole and Harewood’s appearance at Fulham away.
